<p>A computer implemented simulator is operable to determine a first correlation matrix (R) simulating transmission path correlation between a base station and user equipment antennas. The first correlation matrix (R) is determined for simulated wireless transmission paths of a plurality of antennas having the same polarization and arranged in a two-dimensional array. The simulator is configured to: determine second correlation matrices (R k ') for a subset of the antennas which form a first side of the array, determine third correlation matrices (R k '') for a subset of the antennas which form a second side of the array, determine fourth correlation matrices (R k ), each fourth correlation matrix being determined based on a Kronecker product of each second correlation matrix (R k ') and a corresponding third correlation matrix (R k ''), and determine the first correlation matrix (R) simulating transmission path correlation by determining a weighted sum of the one or more fourth correlation matrices (R k ).</p> |
